I spent last night doing some drawing and figuring out what dimensions we should go for and how that translates into pieces for a complete project... so it would certainly be nice to have something to compare it against. By the way, after poking around on Lowe's website I'm thinking that they took down the articles from past "Creative Ideas" magazines, which is probably where those plans were to be found. .-= Rosie T.´s last blog ..<a href="http://thethornocks.blogspot.com/2010/03/i-swore-i-wouldnt.html" rel="nofollow">I swore I wouldn't...</a> =-.

That must have been so stressful! I am so glad that you like the play kitchen and I am SO sorry that the new links do not work. I spent hours looking and locating them! Grrrr. I am going to try again both online and in my computer because I KNOW I had them at some point! Otherwise, whate I know I have is my cut list with the measurements of each piece of wood. The assembly is fairly simple and I am sure I could make my own "plans" since Lowe's is no longer making them available. The plans they had were not very detailed in terms of steps, and I am not sure mine will be any moreso. However, since the desire is there I am happy to re-create the plans if you think you will use them if I create them. Let me know and certainly send pics when you are done!

Sun, 07 Mar 2010 00:55:02 +0000 http://www.mommywords.com/?p=860#comment-6314 I hate to ask, but I am in love with this. I saw it on your blog shortly after you posted it. We were unemployed at the time and I was looking for DIY play kitchens. I desperately wanted one for my DD for Christmas. Didn't happen, but now we have a job and are about to close on a house and I still want one. Sadly, as other people have mentioned, the links you've posted for the kitchens on Lowes.com aren't working. I looked at the plans last year and even emailed them to DH, but I don't think they ever made it onto our hard drive (or it they did that computer is currently non-functional). Its night unto impossible to find these plans just browsing the Lowes site (I could never find the last ones this way either). Any chance you have emailable copies? If not, that fine too... I'm not too afraid of making my own plans. =) Thanks again for the fabulous inspiration! I hate to ask, but I am in love with this. I saw it on your blog shortly after you posted it.

That is impressive. I have also tried the new Lowes link that you have posted several times in response to other comments and it it also not working. Do you have the plans for the kitchen available in any other form? Thanks in advance. Kat Great job! That is impressive.

Like I said, I would round the edges for a more retro look but I like this fridge better.

I too, loved the Pottery Barn Kids one but could not justify the money. I had decided to to make this myself and found the plans at Lowes. Now that I am ready to buy the materials they have taken all the old project plans off the site and replaced them. I have contacted them and it looks like there is nothing they can do. Do you happen to still have the plans? Would you be willing to email them to me? Thanks so much! I LOVE the kitchen you made! I too, loved the Pottery Barn Kids one but could not justify the money.

I absolutely LOVE this idea and am hoping my husband and I can make one for our daughter, but it looks like Lowes no longer has this up on their website. Do you happen to still have the plans?
